Netatmo Urban Weather Station
Urban Weather Station is unique product. In addition to usual weather parameters like temperature, humidity and pressure it also measures CO2 and noise level (indoor only). Outdoor air quality as well as weather forecast is showing from some internet weather sources and not based on measures done by the product. Actually everything that your iPhone, iPad or Android device show is downloaded from netatmo servers. You cannot access your weather station directly without internet connection. So setup of the station is actually simple and it is just create netatmo account and connect the station to Internet using Wi-Fi. Numbers, trends, forecast could be than obtain with app for iOS or Android from anywhere. Also web interface available, so PC and Mac are also could be clients for the weather station.
Netatmo stations have known bug with humidity measures. It show numbers 15-20% more than it actually should. But this could be fixes by contact-support@netatmo.com
The station contain CO2 sensor, which consume a lot of energy. That is why it cannot operate with batteries power and need to be connected to AC adaptor all the time.
